My Default CentOS Setup

This script will probably only be valid for a week, but I thought I would share my ideas on a good CentOS 5 (64bit) install with Ruby on Rails, MySQL and Apache that will work with a capistrano deployment from subversion:

yum -y update
yum -y install ruby ruby-libs ruby-mode ruby-rdoc ruby-irb ruby-ri ruby-docs ruby-devel mysql mysql-devel mysql-server mysql-admin subversion httpd svn

togglesebool httpd_can_network_connect

cd /tmp
wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/29548/rubygems-1.0.1.tgz
tar -xvf rubygems-1.0.1.tgz
cd rubygems-1.0.1
ruby setup.rb

gem install rails json rfacebook acts_as_ferret capistrano mongrel mongrel_cluster pdf-toolkit actionmailer actionpack actionwebservice activerecord activeresource activesupport acts_as_taggable acts_as_versioned ferret google4r calendar mysql sources vpim mime-type --include-dependencies

#Fedora 8 also wants
yum -y install rubygem-mongrel gcc ruby-mysql
yum install gd gd-devel zlib-devel openssl-devel
gem install gem_plugin daemons capistrano --include-dependencies
gem install mongrel mongrel_cluster railsmachine --include-dependencies
gem install --version=2.7 mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/bin/mysql_config

or

yum -y install ruby ruby-libs ruby-mode ruby-rdoc ruby-irb ruby-ri ruby-docs ruby-devel mysql mysql-devel mysql-server mysql-admin subversion httpd svn rubygem-mongrel gcc ruby-mysql gd gd-devel zlib-devel openssl-devel partimage
gem install -y rails -v=2.0.2
gem install json rfacebook acts_as_ferret capistrano mongrel mongrel_cluster pdf-toolkit actionmailer actionpack actionwebservice activerecord activeresource activesupport acts_as_taggable acts_as_versioned ferret google4r calendar mysql sources vpim mime-type ferret mime-types solr-ruby ruby-openid mechanize pdf-toolkit mongrel mongrel_cluster railsmachine bio --include-dependencies


I tried to make it as silent and complete as possible so that I could let the computer do all the work.
